A Twisted Tale -Jane's Jewel-

Mardi Gras "The Medieval Story"  

On a hot, heavy night in Orleans,
Joan and Jane were seen rubbing chest on chest
An inviting, intimate moment, to undress
Two pretty trimmed tops, eating like dames
They touched in ways, that drove those who make war insane
The secret spilled before the sun sprawled across the floor

Medieval England, banging on iron set doors,
All around men and women, wanting to witness the whiplash 
Beads and beads of love, thrown at their feet
Joan' and Jane', having fun in front of, yesterdays courtyard
Sweet acts of flagellation were performed to stimulate the crowd
Screaming, and receiving, intense, brutal lacerations 
In the eyes of endless nudity, everything wet in between 
Left to right, a secluded society, dance in masquerade 
Two men rise and ravage Jane, from hip to hip
Join-in, was a Jouster, and Lord Johnsburg, 
They came in a little closer to claim, Joan
Closing, and inflicting as much damage as possible

Crestfallen forces of the unknown, -the audience grows
Remain firm and indulge this wet period of the Middle Ages,

The first crusade held stones in each hand, 
Applauding to neck the beauty of friends
A noose hanging high held no head on this day
Yelling to feel the pain perils of anguish, 
This was in reality the vassal of Jane
The King, ask to see them on their knees
Before he seeded, sending the Spanish tickler, 
Fetching for the finest skin
At her end, Joan, watched Jane, spread like never before
Perfumed skin, rising up in smoke, -Joan's final stroke
Left burning at the Stake, In a Medieval World, from hell
The Siege of Joan and Jane did not end well
 
A lonely Bard, now sits and sings a sadistic tale,
A tale, of dirty deeds, -a dancing bloody masquerade 
Joan and Jane, compensating for the Mardi Gras Parade

See? Assemble a chapbook. Or several. So others can enjoy your work. A Twisted Tale is one of your best I've read. Oh, dark, for sure. But powerfully intense. Joan and Jane, compensating for the Mardi Gras Parade. What an end to a fantastic piece. xo

Your poetry dominates like a two hour movie. It's visually entertaining and how you directed the scene was creatively out together. It speaks of honesty with a whole lot of passion. It was a great journey, thank you for a great ride. You are be courageous poet.

The imagery is well suited for the ambiance that the author has created throughout this dark piece, of sexual arousal, promiscuity and debauchery. As always ...Good work. Emile. #7

I think you have captured the sad truth of such relationships throughout history, in this somewhat sad, yet highly creative piece.

An excellent poem! Lots of colourful originality. This is the third poem today I have read concerning the theme of BDSM. A while back I wrote a poem concerning this "taboo" subject. I now feel a little more confident about publishing it. Many thanks!! :-) john. P.s Merry Christmas!
